Not that I ever contributed anything to begin with, save some prog ed thing that no one ever reads anyway.
In summary, Et Tu Brute has opened my eyes, music is meaningless and it has no purpose anymore except to be used as a font for "being cool". Nobody listens to bands they genuinely enjoy anymore, rather they pick out the crappiest obscure bands they can find so they can say "I'm hip, I hate all popular music and only like obscure stuff" and because you Phave made a habit out of mentioning the same talentless piece of crap bands over and over and over again that some poor saps are tricked into buying/downloading one of their albums, and they f*cking know it sucks but they pretend to love it so as not to seem like a douchebag to the person who recommended it to them, and because they want to be "cool", so these poor saps recommend the same bands to other poor souls who become trapped in this pointless cycle of "being hip" that goes on and on until eventually this godawful musical abomination against god somehow becomes popular.
This has pretty much been the entire history of Indie, Hardcore and Emo music.
Wow.
Please, oh please, just leave already

This is the most retarded thing I've ever read on here.

How do you know if people actually like what they say they do? I know for a fact Et Tu Brute loved what they did whether you like it or not. Obviously they're not that obscure if 8 people voted for them on here even though we have a somewhat lacking emo forum and a number of people who voted for them aren't even emo forum regulars. It really seems to me that you're the pretentious one.

...

You're in such a bad mood that you feel it necessary to avoid visiting a particular website for a couple of days simply because some people there like a style of music that you don't exactly understand?

Wow. Hope you do some growing up in your time off.

you fucking moron. you clearly have no idea what that sort of music is about. believe it or not, people like this music NOT because it's "cool" to like something no one else knows about, but because they LIKE THE SOUND. WOW. for some reason, you can't seem to get your head around the idea that people have opinions, and that whether music is "good" or "bad" is subjective.

who do you think you are listening to ONE SONG by a band, and then telling me the basis of pretty much all the music I like is wrong because of some preconcieved notions YOU have about it? myself and many others don't ****ing listen to it because it's "cool". never once have i tried to look "cool" or more intelligent by name dropping any band - sure, there are some ****s who DO do that, but not enough for you to base such a huge attack on the whole genre. as well, never have i gone to the lengths you have, ever, to insult a whole genre or even a band to the extent that you are.

get the fuck over yourself you pretentious piece of shit.





PS: the sarcasm wasn't funny

Clearly you're not a tr00 ***, or you wouldn't be calling Indie a genre.

And I'm really getting you off I it seems, do you act like this towards everyone that has a big rant you don't agree with?

Well unfortunately for you I'm planning a violent revolution off pissed off prog fans who hate every musical sub-culture in existance. Current membership partaking in this revolution = 1.

Everything.

Basing communities around music, its incredibly stupid, pointless and ultimately dangerous. It divides all us music lovers into seperate, warring groups.

And its sh*t like that that leads to hateful Prog fans ranting about Indie fans.

You can't stop communities being built around anything if there is anything different about something. Difference creates communities, which leads to enemies and alliances. This ultimately leads to conflict, but it unstoppable as long as their is difference. Since it is impossible to get every one person to accept everyone's difference, it it pointless and 100% utopian to even try to force people to agree on something, which is why I disagree with both sides of the argument here. The point is that if you don't like what someone is doing or how they think bring up the argument. If they aren't swayed by the time you present your facts then shut the **** up, reflect on the conflict, and take what you learned.

If you're being serious thats pathetic. Makes me wonder why you're on music discussion forums in the first place.
You obviously are not an advocate for peace. You only fuel the fire.

Quote:
Your having an opinion also involved bashing the opinions of others, for inane reasons, do you fail to see the idiocy in that?
Any opinion can ultimately offend someone. When someone gets offended it is there fault. It is a mental choice to be offended. Want proof? Well, as children, we are taught to ignore things we can't deal with so there must be some type of choice since that works. Again, this is why I have a huge problem with people not being able to call something "***." Whether I think it is right or wrong, it doesn't matter, flipping out about a word makes you look like the biggest ****ing idiot in the world. It is all silly business. The bottom line is let people do what they want to do and if you don't like it, present the argument. They don't like it, get over it.
